About this book
By investigating eighteenth-century social and economic thought — an intellectual world with its own vocabulary, concepts, and assumptions — Drew McCoy smoothly integrates the history of ideas and the history of public policy in the Jeffersonian era. The book was originally published by UNC Press in 1980.
